DRIVELUB SEAL SYSTEM

The electric motor is protected from ingress by a
double seal system with oil chamber.
A V-ring (A) made of nitrile rubber adheres like a
suction cup to the upper surface and constitutes a
first efficient barrier that prevents solid particles from
coming into contact with the mechanical seal.
The mechanical seal (B) made of silicon carbide
(SIC SEAL) is extremely resistant to abrasion thanks
to its exceptional hardness.
The second seal is a lip one (C). It is continuously
lubricated thanks to the rotation of the mechanical
seal spring which drives up the oil (ESSO MARCOL
82) conveyed by the pipe (D).

4.5 Electrical connection

DANGER:

Before starting work, check that the unit is unplugged and that the pump unit, the control
panel and the auxiliary control circuit cannot restart, even unintentionally.

4.5.1 Ground
Always connect the external protection conductor (ground) to the ground terminal before
attempting to make any other electrical connections.

Connect the pump unit and any electric accessories to a socket with protection conductor
(ground).

Check that the external protection conductor (ground) is longer than the phase conductors; In
case of accidental disconnection of the unit from the phase conductors, the protection
conductor must be the last one to detach itself from the terminal.

Install suitable systems for protection against indirect contact, in order to prevent lethal electric
shocks.
4.5.2 Guidelines for electrical connection

1. Check that:
• The mains voltage and frequency match the specifications on the data plate
• The supply cord is protected from high temperatures, vibrations, collisions and
abrasions.
2. Check that the power supply line is provided with:
• a short circuit protection device of appropriate size
• a mains disconnection device with contact opening distance ensuring complete
disconnection for overvoltage III category conditions
• an RCCB earth leakage switch with tripping current < 30 mA.
4.5.3 Guidelines for the control electric panel

NOTICE:
The electric panel must match the ratings on the unit data plate. Improper combinations could
damage the motor.
• Install appropriate devices for protecting the motor from overloads and short circuits:
Motor Safety features
Single-phase • Automatic reset thermal-ampere protection, in-built (motor protector)
• From short circuit, by the installer: aM fuses (motor start-up), or thermal magnetic switch
with C curve and Icn ≥ 4.5 kA, or other similar device.
Three-phase • Thermal, by the installer: trip class 10 A overload thermal relay + aM fuses (motor start-
up), or start class 10 A motor protection thermal magnetic switch
• From short circuit, by the installer: aM fuses (motor start-up), or thermal magnetic switch
with C curve and Icn ≥ 4.5 kA, or other similar device.
• If required, install phase failure sensitive thermal relays.

Motor protection from overtemperature
• Single-phase: the unit is equipped with built-in capacitor and thermal overload protection,
and stops automatically in case of overtemperature. After 2-4 minutes the thermal overload
protection gives the restart consent.
• Three-phase: Install an appropriate motor protector with D curve in the control panel, in
accordance with the current shown in the data plate.

5 Use and operation

5.1 Precautions
Do not use the unit in swimming pools or similar places when people are inside.
WARNING: Electrical hazard

Check that the unit is properly connected to the mains power supply.
DANGER: Injuries hazard

Do not insert your hands at the bottom of the unit when in operation: risk of personal injury
caused by moving components.
WARNING: Injuries hazard

The unit, equipped with a single-phase motor with automatic reset thermal overload
protection, could restart inadvertently after it has cooled down: risk of physical injury.
WARNING:
It is prohibited to put combustible materials near the unit.
WARNING:
Do not hold the unit by the handle during operation.
WARNING:
Make sure that the drained liquid cannot cause damage or injuries.
NOTICE:
In case of outdoor use, the length of the supply cord must exceed 10 m (33 ft).
NOTICE:
Dry run of the unit is forbidden.
NOTICE:
Make sure that the suction port is completely submerged in the liquid before start-up.
NOTICE:
The unit may only operate for a few minutes while only partially submerged in the liquid, for
example during emptying operations.
See Mechanical characteristics on page 26.

If during the operation the unit is partially uncovered:
WARNING:
Be aware of the extreme heat generated by the unit.
5.2 Rotation direction check (three-phase motors)

1. Place the unit in the vertical position on a level and flat surface.
2. Looking at the unit from the top, start and then stop it immediately: the rotation direction is
correct if the unit impulse movement at start-up tends to turn it clockwise. This means that
the motor is turning clockwise as it should.
5.3 Starting and stopping

Float switch version
1. Connect the plug to the mains and/or turn on the switch: depending on the position of the
float, the unit stays idle or starts to operate.
2. With the unit in operation, check that:
• No liquid is leaking from the pipes
• There is no unwanted noise or vibrations
• There are no vortexes nearby the suction port
• Liquid is actually being pumped.
3. When the float reaches the low position (minimum liquid level), the pump automatically
stops.
Version without float switch
1. Connect the plug to the mains and/or turn on the switch: the unit starts.
2. With the unit in operation, complete the same checks as for the float version.
3. Once the unit has taken up liquid to the minimum level, disconnect the plug from the mains
and/or turn off the switch to switch it off.
